Indeed it does. I'm looking forward to the flex series (I'm specifically waiting on the 140 because I have systems with a low profile requirement), to try to put together some GPU acceleration on my homelab cluster. I need it for transcoding in the short term but in the long term I'm hoping to put up one of those open source, self hosted "cloud" gaming services.

We still do LAN parties and if I can pick up some cheap thin clients, and connect them to a GPU accelerated VDI or something, people wouldn't have to cart their PC's over when we have a LAN.

I'd go for something more modest like the A380, since sparkle has a low profile version of it, but the 6G of dedicated video memory gives me pause, since I'd basically have to dedicate one whole GPU per virtual desktop, which isn't as scalable as I would need. Even putting two users on a single GPU with 6G of memory is kind of a non-starter for me. I've used GPUs with 3G of memory, as recently as 2 years ago, and bluntly, it's not a good experience. So anything less than 4-6G per user is basically rejected right out of the gate. I might pick one up just to test with a single VM in a VDI situation, but long term that's not going to work.
